Frozen S'Mores
It seems that now that Summer is here I have even less time than I used to when I was going to work everyday. I thought that once school let out I would be able to have all this time to work on my special projects, but it seems that doctor appointments, the laundry, and a broken dishwasher have gotten in the way! I also have both my daughters here so we've spent a lot of time going to the movies, the beach, shopping, playing games, etc. -- which is all good!!
I've been a little remiss in keeping up with my blog as well, but I'm hoping to make up for that in posting several recipes this week. The first is an easy, cool little dessert that is great for Family Home Evening. You can whip it up in less than 10 minutes, stick it in the freezer for an hour while you're having FHE, and then it's ready for dessert by the time you're done!
I adapted this recipe from a Hungry Girl recipe I had on hand.
Frozen S'mores
12 sheets (48 crackers) honey graham crackers
3 cups Cool Whip Free, thawed
1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup miniature marshmallows
Directions:
1. Lightly stir together Cool Whip, chocolate chips, and marshmallows.
2. Break graham cracker into two squares. Place one square on plate and put approximately 1/4 cup of the Cool Whip mixture on top of cracker. Place another graham cracker square on top. Make 12 s'mores.
3. Freeze until solid, about 1 hour. You can store these in the freezer until ready to serve -- they're even better the next day!
Makes 12 servings.
